Obama Administration pours gas on Cairo's fire

In letters and blog posts, I advised the Obama Administration not to send Republican senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham to Cairo because "they shall pour gas on the fire and turn a grave situation into a deadly one." But this administration listens only to the voice of ignorance and conceit.

Sending the senators was a very huge mistake and it will cost our nation dearly for many decades to come. The U.S. media here will never tell you that McCain and Graham basically were kicked out of Egypt the same day they arrived. They were taken to the airport and asked not to dare come again.

All the political parties declared their rejection to the "aggressive American intervention in the internal Egyptian affairs." and the declaration was accompanied by a request to sever diplomatic relations with the U.S.

The most crucial request is to reject unequivocally the American monetary aid.

All this is taking place while Egypt is getting ready to receive President Putin of Russia, who will offer the Egyptians his unconditional support.
